ALEXANDRE PAGET, OF MARSEILLES, FRANCE.

APPARATUS FOR TREATING OLEAGINOUS OR OTHER SEEDS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 494,883, dated April 4, 1893.

Application filed August 27, 1892. fierial No. 444,291. (No model.) Patented in France February 15, 1892,1Io. 219,313.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ALEXANDRE PAGET, engineer, acitizen of the Republic of France, residing at Marseilles (Benches du Rhone) France, have invented certain Improvements in Apparatus Employed in. the Treatment of Oleaginous or other Seeds, (for which I have obtained a French patent February 15, 1892, No. 219,313,) of which the following is a specification.

The improvements the subject of this invention relate to apparatus employed in the treatment of oleaginous and other seeds, and they are particularly directed to the part of these apparatus intended for extraction and to the apparatus or extractor, termed the Paget extractor, and represented on the annexed drawings upon which Figure l is a vertical section, to a scale of one-sixth; of the apparatus in question. Fig. 2 is a corresponding plan view thereof partly in section, partly in exterior view. a

The Paget extractor is composed of a vessel formed of one or of several sections R preferably circular superposed the one upon the other, the lower one carrying ears or cleats G to receive the axles upon which are mounted the wheels permitting the apparatus to be run upon a railwayVto facilitate its manipulation. Each section It comprises a metal ring having a resistance calculated to support the various pressures to which the sections are destined to be submitted for the extraction of the oleaginous and other matters. In these sections, hereinafter termed rings, a series of vertical holes T serves to bring the extracted products into a collector O which is in the bottom ring; this collector is on an inclined plane in order to facilitate the discharge, by the cock B into a receiver of any kind. Further, on each ring, concentric grooves S are formed, more or less close together and of suitable section, which open into the vertical orifices T. On the inner face of these grooves metallic wires F are applied, they are placed side by side completely lining the inside of the rings R and thus covering the grooves S. The method of attaching these wires is very simple; it consists simply 1n curving the two ends into a groove formed at the intersection of each ring; for

extractor; and is guided therein by three longitudinal fillets X to prevent the Wear which might be produced upon the wires by the friction of this plate.

To use this extractor it is sufficient to fill it with materials or matters to be treated, bring it by the railway V, laid for this purpose under a hydraulic press from which the presser-plate will have been removed, and, on Working the piston of the press, it will act upon the resser-plate P and this latter pressing on the materials, extracts their contents which passes by the points of contact of the metallic wires F, escapes by the grooves S, runs off by the orifices T into the collector O and issues finally by the cock B.

I desire it to be understood that my extractor may be constructed of any sh ape and dimensions and be formed of any number of sections or rings R. Further, that the nature of the materials used in the fitting of its several constituent parts may be varied as may be found desirable.

Having fully described my invention,what I desire to claim and secure by Letters Patent is- 1. Au extractor for oleaginous and other substances comprising avessel of ring section, the said vessel provided with vertical holes and inner concentric grooves opening into the said holes, a wire lining covering the said grooves, and a collector with which the said vertical holes communicate, in combination with a presser plate adapted to slide up and down within the said vessel, and guides within the vessel for the presser plate, all substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

2. An extractor for oleaginous and other substances comprising a vessel made up of a number of superposed sections supported on centric grooves opening into the said holes, and metallic wires placed side by side lining the interior of these sections, the said wires being clippedin grooves or recesses provided for that purpose, in combination with a presser plate suitably guided in the superposed sections and a collector provided with a cock and communicating with the vertical holes, all substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
